Leave me out of any specifically denominational debate, please. With regard to Christ-centered belief:

1 We all believe in one true God,
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
Ever-present help in need,
Praised by all the heav’nly host;
All He made His love enfolds,
All creation He upholds.

2 We all believe in Jesus Christ,
Son of God and Mary’s son,
Who descended from His thrones
And for us salvation won;
By whose cross and death are we
Rescued from all misery.

3 We all confess the Holy Ghost,
Who from both in truth proceeds,
Who sustains and comforts us
In all trials, fears, and needs.
Blessed, holy Trinity,
Praise forever be to Thee!

Tobias Clausnitzer, 1619-84
Translated by Catherine Winkworth, 1827-78

.
“Trinity” is part of the man made stuff, but otherwise OK.

The “Holy Spirit” is the communication stream that links us to our Elohim. They are one, but nothing in any part of the word suggests a “trinity.”

The word says there are seven spirits of our Elohim.
